I had to buy Vista basic for my desktop yesterday because of certain circumstances. so I go it running and had everything updated but on the system properties window it does not mention SP1. I tried to DL the standalone SP1 file from microsoft but when I run it I get this message. I knew vista still had a few kinks but to not trust its own software???? WFT!!!!!

EDIT the link is changed by the word filter here. I think you can figure it out. vistaf**kup.jpg

Go to Start > All Programs > Windows Update
Click "check for updates" a few times.
If it doesn't appear, see if any of these issues apply to you:

I don't know why the standalone download didn't work for you, but if you clear up all the issues listed in that link, you should see it in Windows Update. -

Vista will update to SP1 automatically correct?
